Choosing balcony grass

Item Why it works
Pile height 20–30 mm is easy to clean
Backing Drainage holes essential
Install Interlocking tiles or a cut roll
Edges Trim neatly to the wall
Care Brush and rinse monthly

Floors

  1. Lay a full lawn wall to wall with drainage.
  2. Use a grass rug in the centre with tiles around it.
  3. Try interlocking grass tiles for easy removal.

Walls and planters

  1. Add artificial grass wall panels for privacy.
  2. Combine with real potted plants for texture.

Furniture and light

  1. Choose rattan chairs for a garden feel.
  2. Add lanterns and string lights for evenings.

Tip: Make sure water can still reach the balcony drain, as blocked drains can cause leaks and damage. Check your building rules and keep heat sources such as fire pits and barbecues off artificial grass, which can melt.
